Image taken on 16 August 2017, when HMS Queen Elizabeth entered Portsmouth for the first time.
Also visible is HMS Diamond, HMS Victory, HMS M.33 and the Mary Rose museum
Makes you wonder what Nelson would‘ve given for QE at Trafalgar.
Quite big isn’t it.
Very nice. Where is the past? I don’t see any old ship.
In an alternate (and better) timeline, HMS Warspite would be in this photo
If a war happens, I’d rather be in the one with a proven track record.
Fantastic
HMS Warrior just out of shot to the left too.
I visited last year to see the victory, you can explore every deck and even go underneath it. That ship is massive. Then we left and I spotted an aircraft carrier docked much further back and let me tell you, those fuckers are insane. Like, how the fuck do you float.
Absolutely loved touring HMS Victory. HMS Warrior was even better IMO (not visible in this pic it’s just off to the left), but both are just amazing to go around. Mind your head. Nearly got concussion whacking my head. : /
They must have went right up against the no-fly zone to shoot this one.
